A lengthy, detailed article and hat tip to WoTR. Some of the conclusions could have a far wider application to rebuilding Arab armies.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/hezbollah...001923525.htmlThe Islamist militant group Hezbollah exploded into a major cocaine trafficker for the United States over the past decade — and it happened under former President Barack Obama's watch to help score a nuclear deal with Iran, a report revealed Monday.
Project Cassandra, a campaign launched by the Drug Enforcement Administration in 2008, found that the Iran-backed military and political organization collected $1 billion a year from money laundering, criminal activities, and drug and weapons trade, according to Politico. Over the following eight years, the agency found that Hezbollah was involved in cocaine shipments from Latin America to West Africa, as well as through Venezuela and Mexico to the United States.

A canter down some dark defile
Two thousand pounds of education
Drops to a ten-rupee jezail
